Limoncello is a lemon liqueur originating from Italy. Served chilled in a small glass, this after-dinner degestivo can be mixed with other flavors to make a unique cocktail. Liz suggests making your own homemade limoncello then shaking it with a bitter of your choice for a special twist. See her bartender’s notes below.
